Manage domain names
You can disable, enable, or delete a domain name on the Domain Management page of the ApsaraVideo Live console.
Disable a domain name
Manual Deactivation
Perform the following steps to disable a domain name that you do not want to use:
After you disable a domain name, the information about the domain name is retained. ApsaraVideo Live automatically reroutes all requests that are destined for the domain name to the origin.
- Log on to the ApsaraVideo Live console.
In the left navigation pane, click Domain Names. The Domain Management page appears.
Find the domain name that you want to disable and click Disable in the Actions column.

In the confirmation dialog box that appears, click OK.
In the Status column, the status of the domain name changes to Disabled.

Automatic Suspension Due to Non-payment
After the account is overdue, the domain name will be automatically disabled, and the normal push-pull flow cannot be made during the period. After the renewal is successful, the domain name will be automatically restored to activation without your manual operation.
Before deactivating or deleting a domain name, please confirm the business scope, push the domain name and related broadcast domain name. Deactivating or deleting only one broadcast domain name does not mean that all live broadcast services are stopped or the fees already incurred will not be canceled. When checking bills after deactivation, please distinguish the actual usage occurrence time, deactivation or deletion time and billing time, and check according to the specific billing item cycle.
Domain names that are disabled in arrears will be automatically restored after recharging. If the arrears are caused by abnormal usage such as stolen brushes, abnormal usage may continue to occur after the domain name is restored. Please enable Signed ingest and streaming URLs after recharging, or disable the domain name.
Deleting a domain name does not delete the recorded files that have been saved in OSS or VOD. These files may still incur storage charges.
